1st World Taijiquan Championships (2014) - Women's Group A Yang Style Taijiquan - 1st Place CHN

[@hgrsi8822]

I am unfamiliar with tai chi forms, but have been fortunate enough to stumble across this awesome display of movement mastery, a perfect display of balance focus and Control.

[@hukunohaha8837]

何度も拝見しております。美しい素晴らしい、何度見ても感動します。ありがとうございます。動画の終わりにはいつも自然と拍手してしまいます。

[@guiray2000]

This is a very masterful display of Tai Chi as a performance art. Incredible performance. She is not trying to be some MMA capable martial artist who can fight. This is Tai Chi as an art form. It takes years of training to achieve her level of performance. To just do Tai Chi as a sport like Judo would not take longer than a regular Judoka. Tai Chi is a very deep and diverse art. It has the fighting also but most people are looking for the Health benefits and the Beauty which is unique to eastern martial arts. Western dancers who study Ballet, modern , contemporary etc. can appreciate her level of skill too. Martial art benefits do not just come from fighting and being tough.

[@iodine6921]

yes sir... I agree it is also not just an art form. They are showing a form, it has basic core movements and each of those basic core movement has several elements hidden inside... If each movement is taken out of the encyclopedia of movement, which is what a form is. Each movement if taken out and trained and applied, all work in combat. The form is not for fighting, it is filled reference points. To train for fighting each movement is to be taken out of it and perfected and applied until that is also perfected. each hand, finger, elbow, foot etc., is to be conditioned, perfected to lethal perfection. Then it can compete with any Martial Art in hand to hand combat. I used it in underground Kickboxing in Hong-Kong, Thailand, Taiwan and Japan...61 matches and no loses, it was bareknuckle, no rules. It's just knowing how to train and applying it.. The movements have to be refined down. In the forms it teaches big movement to help teach and feel it so it is easier to grasp and learn. I also taught hand to hand combat in the United States Marines Corps to special forces, teaching how to apply and use these arts. I currently have 59 years of on going experience and as the old saying goes in internal arts... if done correctly you just keep improving with time and age. In many ways i am much better than i was in my 20's etc... I started at age 8 and grew up around Chinese Kung-Fu masters... we trained 8 plus hours every day, 7 days a week. If I only trained 6 hours it was like taking the day off. My point is this stuff works. It was not designed for gloves or a sport of rules to fight by. To put gloves on you lose all that hand ability etc... The gloves have to be trained with and adapted to. Most of us would rather not throw over half the art away just to train for a sport. Believe me in the Marines and teaching special forces... it was put up or shut up. I was in charge of training and teaching our special forces and my orders came straight from the U.S pentagon... I had full say as to what i taught and how I taught and not even a General could over turn my orders without going through the Pentagon... I'm trying to convey that the real stuff works like a charm or there's no way I would have been granted full say or even to teach at all. I teach instructors these days. Most of my concepts and chi knowledge is over their heads, sadly. Most do not know what Chi really is etc.... Chi is the energy field of an atom. So in essence we have to learn the physics of an atom... the mind can turn it's self and body into what a neutron of an atom does. Everything made of atoms have an energy field, the mind and our body and the air and food we intake is made of atoms...thus each has chi. The mind is the controlling chi... and since it is of the same, it can blend with and control each atoms chi field in the mind and body. The mind unifies all the atoms energy fields and it becomes as one complete energy field... thus oneness happens, enlightenment. I do this every day. (also these days I do try to help some UFC fighters, it was difficult at first... Just about every time i showed them how to stop or prevent or attack, they were telling me, no we can't do that, that's not legal, that's not allowed... so i have to learn their rules just to help them! Hahahaha.. Sports have rules, True battle field combat has no rules.... One finger strike buried deep in the eyes will stop most things human or animal) Take care and best wishes to you and everyone.

[@andrevlasblom2411]

So fluent and effortless. Absolutely breathtaking!

[@jackyjo.9559]

I’ve seen this video the sixth time. It’s absolutely stunning! For me she is an idol to improve my own Yang style!

[@tudor8291]

I have no words to explain how much I apreciate asian people.They are above americans and all of us in terms of traditions and health. Awesome people I love you guys!

[@winfielddixon5166]

Wow! Words are inadequate to describe the beauty and grace of her form! Inspirational!

[@apistosig4173]

It is almost impossible to comprehend the mastery of the artist - I have been brought to tears by the majesty of her movement!

[@minhnguyen5861]

Apisto Group she was a virgin girl in perfect white uniform...?

[@dacedavis5125]

@Max Payne The accuracy of the movements, timing, rhythm, overall form etc.

[@david1234lee]

[@Adeus555]

Ridiculously graceful!

[@dedeewright5998]

Beautiful!🤗🤗🤗🌹💜

[@onofrioscriba]

Not only her form but her Qi is fresh and pure. She has a big talent.

[@ckaz007]

Such fluidity and grace, a great performance. Watch how long her legs stay bent throughout her routine. Now try that yourself, you won't last a minute.

[@goognamgoognw6637]

she has tremendous force in her legs and buttocks.

[@onefleetingsmile]

Most people don't last 20 seconds...

[@joeywang2024]

ta shi shui???

[@entertaichi]

Thanks for sharing! Have an awesome day!

[@swimwithsue9227]

Her leg stretch is amazing

[@psling6720]

Awesome! Beautiful & graceful movements

[@shaft_jb]

合掌....謝謝

[@alyjiyu]

Masterful fluidity ~ flowing like water. Beautiful demonstration of *perfect focus* & *PRESENCE* Her chi is palpable when she manipulates space with her hands. Watch closely the subtle energy formation. She's a Master.

[@Barry4B]

Wow ! So that’s what our species should really look like !

[@ozgursenturk11-11]

She didn't even blink her eyes🙏😍

[@1Ma9iN8tive]

Ozgur Senturk - she did ... it just takes her one who lifetime to blink ha ha ha

[@JanCarol11]

no, but she did adjust the cuff of her sleeve at one point.

[@pasanglama8788]

[@Vischan552]

Я восхищаюсь вами, вашим искусством. Движение грация.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Sharkyktc001]

02:54!! Never seen someone do Needle at sea bottom while nearly squatting down to the floor!! Insane skill

[@bjarnesmith640]

She is so smooth, composed and elegant. A pleasure to watch her perform.

[@lotuskoko]

That was absolutely beautiful. And omg, she has some strong legs! (Why does everything have to be turned into a competition, though?)

[@hadidy13]

Because competition will bring the best out of you

[@YUMA-jz9xx]

@Koko Kosila -- I concur. The quiet power, grace and beauty of movement of the performers notwithstanding, this competition thing seems anathema to what I feel is the essence of Tai Chi.

[@PaulGappyNorris]

Ebrahim Elhadidy - nope.

[@andtastic1]

JPT. would like to own a copy of the music.

[@paulleitner8305]

hes so cute like her performans

[@jaamorrison1028]

Wow! Incredibly beautiful! 👏

[@shalvahmb617]

Strong & flowing. Thank you for sharing this beautiful exhibition of the form.

[@lunben4145]

Her form is amazing yet I doubt if she has internal power cause internal power is at a much higher level

[@ei-x]

Beautiful performance

[@kathymyers7279]

I have no idea what I’m looking at. It’s beautiful though. People clapping during moment of pinnacle knee bending. Classical eastern “ballet”. Turned in, flexed feet, grounded, opposit but so similar .

[@kruanniem.188]

I love this video very much. May I add to my Wudang Taichi Application for those who want to learn how to perform well in Thailand.

[@goognamgoognw6637]

thailand has dishonest monks that are not true buddhist practioners. Some of them go abroad. I saw one head monk, his behavior is dishonorable. Impolite, hungry for power and full of hate Thai monk. Thailand is country with no morals, running a prostitution brothel of the young girls. I have never been there.

[@leonardusi2007]

力與美的結合！精氣神俱足。

[@yanglikungfu452]

O Tai chi tem tudo há vê com as mulheres, pois elas são suaves e gentis, como o yin e yang. União perfeita taiji e menina. Amituofo

[@thelastasian4916]

I love her

[@jchogilliam7861]

So beautiful movements 👍

[@rosangelalopes1947]

Beautiful lovely

[@TheStrataminor]

I wonder what 'version' of Yang Taichi she is doing? Standard Yang Family? A competition form perhaps?

[@pattilapeche]

Yes, each contestant develops his/her own form of proscribed length using standardized yang elements, Kind of like ice skaters in the free form part of the competition.

[@TheStrataminor]

@@pattilapeche Thanks for that! I just saw your comment 8 months later! I got into Chen Taichi instead of Yang in the end! However if it is Taichi, it is awesome!

[@DarthLord3]

Does anyone knows this song's name?

[@michelhuot7722]

Superbe bravos mille fois

[@johnkeith8072]

Skill, grace and power. This young lady could have kicked my ass on my best day.

[@GenivalSiqueira]

Amazing

[@camrunner6633]

Slow steady movement requires a high excess of strenght and stamina above whats needed to move your weight

[@Boris_Chang]

Wonderful Wushu performance. Not sure what this has to do with Taijichuan though.

[@anhhaphuong773]

[@fgdouglas]

Coisa mais linda!!!

[@dwaynegreen1786]

Beautiful performance, thank you for sharing.

[@timgogodown193]

It's almost like there's a language in there

[@CottonBoxer]

because their is. and that language will present differently based on what level the person is playing the form on and limited by their own skill as well. so we get to feel what some folks can imagine as they watch us play. those feelings can be like the ebb and flow of a big wave or small stream and at the same time the stillness is a weird constant that's maintained. i teach and don't how how that happens actually even though i do it. i do know it's a consequence of getting all prerequisites correct/close then it just sorta happens on auto pilot and then u start to control it and then it operates naturally by itself in a very subtle way u don't think about. like breathing...

[@tu767]

So beautiful
